This is an amusing romp, in the Ugly Betty style with a touch of French farce, dealing with a priest, who isnâ€™t really a priest, a bunch of Catholics clergy who donâ€™t act very Catholic and emigration to Oz. While probably not the book for your older religious relative, itâ€™s a terribly amusing look at hypocrisy.

Of course, there is a bit of redemption for the main character as well as a romance with someone sent to undermine him and expose him. There are all kind of machinations going on in an old folks home that is set to close to help a corrupt bishop get his trip to Rome. A pinch of Pom bashing in the old folks home reminds you its really Australian. Australian transvestites and lady-boys add the self-depricating element so needed in this kind of novel.

Its yet another one of those books that is terribly good fun and you donâ€™t want to ruin the plot when reviewing it. While the book is 415 pages, itâ€™s a quick read that never plods or bogs down. The fact it kept my attention while I read it on my Touch via PDF proof shows just how much I enjoyed it.

If you arenâ€™t easily offended and like a good farce romp then this just might be the book for you. Letâ€™s just say itâ€™s the antithesis of a Dan Brown novel. There are sometimes in life when simple and a bit silly is just what the doctor, or Priest, ordered.
